摘要

Aggregation of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is implicated in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Glutathionylation and phosphorylation of SOD1 is omnipresent in the human body, even in healthy individuals, and has been shown to increase SOD1 dimer dissociation, which is the first step on the pathway toward SOD1 aggregation. We found that post-translational modification of SOD1, especially glutathionylation, promotes dimer dissociation. We discovered an intermediate state in the pathway to dissociation, a conformational change that involves a loosening interactions. In modified SOD1, this intermediate state is stabilized as compared to unmodified SOD1. The presence of post-translational modifications could explain the environmental factors involved in the speed of disease progression. Because post-translational modifications such as glutathionylation are often induced by oxidative stress, post-translational modification of SOD1 could be a factor in the occurrence of sporadic cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which represent 90% of all cases of the disease.
